No Hugo Boss uniform for you

Donald Trump is going to hold a UFC event on the lawn of the White House to celebrate America’s 250th birthday because of course he is:
“Every one of our national park battlefields and historic sites are going to have special events in honor of America 250,” Trump said at the “America 250” event at the Iowa State Fairgrounds on the eve of the Fourth of July, adding: “We’re going to have a UFC fight – think of this – on the grounds of the White House.”
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the plans, adding that the president is “dead serious.” . . .
Thursday’s announcement, like his previous appearances at UFC events, highlights the alignment between the mixed martial arts brand and the young men who helped propel Trump back to the White House.
Trump, who has long styled himself a “fighter,” successfully tapped into the male-oriented podcast sphere during his 2024 campaign. Many such podcasters discuss physical fitness, promote traditional traits of masculinity and often share a deep appreciation for mixed martial arts, specifically UFC.
At Thursday’s event, Trump added that the festivities for the country’s milestone birthday would also include other professional and amateur sporting events.
High school athletes will participate in what Trump called the “Patriot Games,” a televised competition led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, the president previewed.
We’re a nation of morons with bad taste so why not elect Donald Trump president a few times?
A California man refused to tone down his support for President Donald Trump even after his wife, an Iranian national, was taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement last week amid fears of “sleeper cell” attacks in the wake of the U.S. strikes on Iran.
“Trump is not trying to do anything bad,” Arthu Sahakyan told Fox affiliate KTTV. “We understand what he’s doing. He wants the best for the country. I’m just trying to make the best of it.”
Sahakyan’s wife, Arpineh Masihi, immigrated to the U.S. when she was 3 years old as a refugee, but had her green card revoked about 15 years ago when she was convicted of a theft-related crime.
Masihi’s husband told the outlet they’ve been trying to regain her legal status, but she was detained June 30, a week after the U.S. bombed three nuclear sites in Iran. Home surveillance footage reviewed by KTTV reportedly showed agents outside to take Masihi away.
“She came and kissed the kids and that was it,” Sahakyan said. “That was the last time we saw her.”
Masihi’s detainment comes at a time when the Trump administration has intensified fears over Iranian “sleeper cells.” The Department of Homeland Security issued a threat bulletin last month stating that “the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict could contribute to US-based individuals plotting additional attacks.”
U.S. Customs and Border Protection had also spurred additional fears over Iranian sleeper cells, alleging that thousands of Iranian nationals have entered the country illegally.
“Though we have not received any specific credible threats to share with you all, the threat of sleeper cells or sympathizers acting on their own, or at the behest of Iran has never been higher,” CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott wrote in a memo.
In recent weeks, Iranian nationals who have lived in the U.S. for decades, and whose loved ones say are not threats to national security, have been taken by ICE, the Associated Press reported.
Attorney General Pam Bond claimed that Iranian sleeper cells had “invaded” the country.
“We have, thus far, arrested 1,500 illegal Iranians in our country,” she told Congress.
Sahakyan told KTTV that “because of the sleeper cells” he is “very for” the U.S. vetting Iranian nationals.
“I think it will resolve a lot of issues because we’ll know exactly who’s in here for what reasons, even though I miss [my wife] dearly,” Sahakyan said. “I think we could have a faster process [where they determine] she’s not a radical, or tied to the crazies, let her out.”
